Abraão Guimarães Tembe

Abraão Guimarães Tembe is a native of Catembe, an urban district in the city of Maputo. He is 52 years old and married. He supports only his three children, and his younger children are in school.

Abraão studied through 12th grade and stopped due to lack of financial resources to pay for expenses. Before his marriage, he had only completed 4th grade, and afterwards he attended night school through this level. With his children in school, resources were overcome by other needs and he stopped studying, giving priority to his children.

Abraão is requesting a loan for the second time from Hluvuku, and for the first time from Kiva. He plans to buy construction material. He has been a teacher for over 20 years with a monthly salary of 6000 meticais.
